This year marks the 35th year of P177 Queens. Our school has 54 classes at our main site, 7 classes at our 295 site and we also have three inclusion classes which are housed in 177@139 and one class at 177@190. We educate a variety of different ratios that encompass 6:1’s, 8:1’s, 12:1’s and two classes of 12:1:4 at our 295 site. Our total school population is five hundred students and the majority of our students are of high school and middle school age. It is the mission of our school to have our students become as independent as possible as we prepare them for future life in the community. We provide a variety of different programs as well having our students actively participate in work site programs both in school and out in the community. Our school also offers many workshops, parent support group and transition planning for all of our parent/guardians. We also have a sibling group for many students from our school as well as from other schools whose family member has a disability. Parent/guardian participation in school and our workshops truly benefits all of our students and their future planning.

Sincerely,

Kathleen Posa, Principal
